Number of Missionaries
Is Concern of Bishop
Bv LOUIS CASSELS
United Pres International
American Catholics are
sending more missionaries
abroad than ever before. But
they still aren't doing as much
as they should for "the spirit
ually underprivileged of the
world."
That's the verdict of Bishop
Fulton J. Sheen, who gave
up his popular television pro
gram last year to devote full
time to the task of stimu
lating a larger U- S. contribu
tion to the global missionary
efforts of the Catholic church.
Bishop Sheen is national
director of the Society for
the Propagation of the Faith.
He was in Washington, D. C,
this week to preside over a
three-day meeting of the U. S.
Catholic Mission Secretariat.
An official report present
ed at the meeting showed that
. there are now 6,124 American
Catholic missionaries serving
overseas
That is an increase of near
ly 1,000 in the past two years.
It is nearly three times as
many missionaries as the
American branch of the
church provided in 1940.
Some people would say that
is a pretty good record for a
country which was itself a
Pockefbook Guides
Purchase of Meat
Washington. (UPD Women
buy meat according to the
, pocketbook, not the appetite,
says the Agriculture Depart-
( merit. H.
' We buy more expensive
, cuts of beef or pork and
larger amounts of veal or
lamb if the budget is larger,
an Agricultural Marketing
Service report showed.
The effect of income on
choices of meat was determ
ined in a survey of food con
sumption by households in all
parts of the United States.
Total meat consumption
also is related to family in
come level, the survey
showed. The relationship was
marked most sharply in the
South.
No matter what the in
some, most families tend to
eat less pork than beef. The
amount of pork consumed
varies in each part of the
country. In the South and
North Central states, families
eat more lamb. Stewing and
boiling beef is most popular
with low income families.
Ham has lost favor with the
wealthy, and ground beef is
popular in all income levels.
RED CHERRY SOUP
New York-OJPD-Red cherry
soup is a good beginning for
a ham dinner.
Drain one 1-pound can of
water-pack red sour pitted
cherries. Preserve liquid and
a few whole cherrieis for gar
nish. Chop remaining fruit
very fine or puree in electric
blender.
Combine U cup sugar with
2 teaspoons cornstarch and V4
teaspoon each salt and cinna
mon in saucepan. Stir- in
cherry liquid, chopped cher
ries and orange juice, and
cook over medium heat, stir
ring constantly until mixture
comes to boil. Boil Vz minute.
Remove from heat, stir in M
cup claret wine and serve, hot
or chilled, with a garnish of
sour cream and whole cher
ries. Serves four.
NOT MODERN ENOUGH
Lansing, Mich.-4UPD-A con
ference on "modern methods
and machines in state govern
ment" Thursday just wasn't
modern enough. Several dem
onstrations had to be can
celled because there weren't
enough electrical outlets.
"mission territory" of the
Catholic church only 50 years
ago.
No Time For Rest
But Bishop Sheen is not a
man for resting on laurels.
The Catholic church in Amer
ica is today one of the largest,
wealthiest and best-staffed
branches of world Catholic
ism. And Bishop Sheen be
lieves it is high time for more
"missionary c o n s c iousness''
among American Catholics.
Even at the present figure,
he pointed out, the number
of American Catholic mission
aries represents "less than
three per cent of the total
number of priests, brothers
and sisters in the United
States."
"It would be a violation of
Catholic spirit," he said, "to
hoard personnel at home when
they are so sorely needed in
other parts of the world. The
superfluities of the rich are
the necessities of the poor,
even as regards personnel."
As a further antidote for
any pride American Catholics
may be tempted to feel in
their growing missionary
force. Bishop Sheen pointed
out that they still have a long
way to go to "catch up" with
American Protestants and Eu
ropean Catholics.
About 24,000 American
Protestant missionaries are
serving abroad. They outnum
ber American Catholic mis
sionaries, by ratios as high
as 3 or 4 to 1, in all major
mission fields except the Pa
cific Ocean islands.
African Figures
Africa-where Pope Pius has
urged a concentrated mission
effort-affords a good example
of the contrast between U. S.
and European Catholic con
tributions of missionary per
sonnel. There are now 381 Ameri
can Catholic priests and
brothers serving in African
missions. There are 2,197
priests from France, 1,149
from Ireland, 1,136 from the
Netherlands, 660 from Italy,
and 451 from Germany.
To Bishop Sheen, the "most
encouraging" development of
the past two years was a sharp
jump in the number of Ameri
can Catholic laymen serving
as foreign missionaries. There
are now 96 lay missionaries,
compared to only 16 in 1956.
"Judging by the present de
sire of laity to dedicate them
selves to the church, this num
ber will be increased ten-fold
within five years,", the bishop
predicted.
Wrong Attitude
Appeals for greater mission
ary efforts sometimes encoun
ter apathy from church mem
bers who feel it is somehow
presumptuous to send mission
aries to people who "already
have a religion of their own,"
To this attitude, which is
found widely in Protestant
churches, too, Bishop Sheen
had an answer:
"Other world religions go
from man to God, as do the
Moslems by surrender to
God's will; the Taoists by
obedience to cosmic law; the
Buddhists say their denial of
wordly desires.
"But Christianity is not
man going to God, but God
coming to man. Faith, grace
and salvation are gifts. Pagan
nations cannot save them
selves any more than they
can lift themselves by their
own bootstraps. There is only
one savior or redeemer for
all mankind.
"Missionaries, therefore,
must go to other lands to
bring them the hearing of the
word of God and the activa
tion of that word in the sacraments."
